Hello Mary,

I belive that they do way to many tests prenantally on healthy women. Don't get me wrong, we are very lucky to have the knowledge and testing that can save lives. For myself, if I have another child, I would not have many of the tests *this of course is if the pregnancy is normal and low risk*

Half the time with the glucose tests they have to do the next level of test because it is borderline or they have a false reading. I also hear this alot about the blood testing that they have started to do here in my area...

Sorry to ramble on... as long as mom is healthy and baby is growing I do not see why you would have to get it done... I also refused an IV when I had my daughter... had to sign alot of forms etc but they did it..

Take care
